The potato or Solanum tuberosum is a perennial tuber of the Solanaceae family. It is one of the most widely used vegetables in Europe and North and South America. There are six other species of Solanum of minor importance. There are thousands of varieties of potato in cultivation.

Potatoes have a high carbohydrate content and include protein, minerals (particularly potassium, calcium) and vitamins, including vitamin C. More vitamin C is found in freshly harvested potatoes than potatoes that have been stored. Peeled, long-stored potatoes fried by fast-food establishments have less nutritional value although they still have potassium and vitamin C.

Potatoes can be prepared for eating in numerous ways, either with their skin on or peeled, whole or cut into pieces, and with seasonings or without. All that is required is that they be cooked to break down the starch and make them edible. Potatoes are generally eaten hot, but several basic potato recipes involve cooking the potatoes and then eating them cold - potato salad and potato chips. One of the commonest presentation methods is 'mashed potatoes'. These are peeled, boiled then mashed and mixed with butter, cream, or other seasonings before serving. Potatoes can also be baked whole; cut into cubes and roasted; grated and formed into dumplings or potato pancakes; and cut into long, thin pieces and fried or baked.

Water scarcity is the condition of insufficient freshwater resources to meet the human and

environmental demands of a given area. The condition is inseparably linked to human rights.

Sufficient access to safe drinking water is a priority for global development. However, given the challenges of population growth, wasteful use, growing pollution, and changes in weather patterns due to global warming, many countries and major cities worldwide, both wealthy and poor, faced increasing water scarcity in the 21st century.

In places with low rainfall or limited access to surface water, dependence on aquifers is

commonplace. The exploitation of groundwater resources can threaten future water supplies if the rate of withdrawal from the aquifer exceeds the rate of natural recharge. It is estimated that a third of the world’s largest aquifer systems are in distress. In addition, the redirection, overuse, and pollution of rivers and lakes for irrigation, industry, and municipal uses can result in significant environmental harm and the collapse of ecosystems.

The preservation and restoration of ecosystems is a key strategy in the fight against water scarcity. Freshwater ecosystems also provide a number of other ecosystem services, such as nutrient recycling and flood protection. Only a whole ecosystem can support these ecological processes, which have economic and social value. Natural areas, however, are often not evaluated with their ecological importance in mind and are destroyed or degraded for more immediate economic benefits.
